The VantageScore® Credit Score, Powered by Experian®

The Financial Crisis Has Reshaped The Lending Environment

After a long period of dormancy, prospecting and portfolio expansion are on the rise with banks, credit card companies, credit unions and other financial institutions. Scoring strategies are being refined to capture a broader consumer population, while credit policies are being reassessed to avoid past mistakes and deliver controlled growth.

The VantageScore Credit Score—Addressing the Needs of the New Market

Developed as a joint venture among the three major credit reporting companies (CRCs) Experian, Equifax and TransUnion, the VantageScore credit score combines cutting edge, patented and patent-pending analytic techniques to produce a model that offers more consistency across bureau platforms, along with the ability to score a broader population.

Why the VantageScore Credit Score?

Easier for Lenders to Use. Easier for Consumers to Understand.

A familiar 300 to 850 point scale.

The use of a single model across all three credit reporting companies decreases score variances.

Easy to understand reason codes to indicate why a consumer’s credit score is not higher are explained and approaches to resolving them are addressed.

The VantageScore credit score leverages the collective experience of the industry’s leading experts on credit data, credit risk modeling and analytics to provide lenders with a more consistent, highly predictive credit score.

Experian understands consumer data changes and that scores need to be updated to reflect the evolving consumer credit profile.

The strength of our data, along with our analytics and software expertise, provides an unprecedented predictive boost in lending decisions.

The VantageScore risk model has been recognized by federal regulators who have explicitly stated that choice in the credit score marketplace should be protected.
